  AV1 Video Playback funky
Posted by: icedigger - 04-29-2023, 05:19 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)

Got a funky one for you, may be simple too.

Playing back any videos with the AV1 video format flickers / skips heavily when using just about anything but VLC to play it.

Sound playback is fine in all the media players though.

Using kernel 6.3, tried other kernels with same thing.

System should be PLENTY fast to do av1 playback (not even encoding).

System Specs:

CPU:  Intel 13600K
Mobo:  ASRock Z790 Riptide
RAM:  32GB DDR5 6400
GPU:  AMD 6950
Sound Card:  Asus Strix Raid

  Security Keys Like Yubikey and such
Posted by: icedigger - 04-29-2023, 01:32 PM - Forum: On Topic - No Replies

Curious if anybody else uses a hardware based security key for linux and other things for mfa stuffs?

I'm not talking about the 2fa programs on the phones but actual hardware keys like Yubikey and such.

I just bought the Yubikey 5c NFC and its fantastic!

Fooling around with it right now.

  Has anyone ever installed Waydroid on LL ?
Posted by: Jean-Marc B - 04-27-2023, 03:23 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (6)

Hi folks !

Well, before trying it myself, I'd like to know if someone has already tried to install "Waydroid" and if it was worth the bother.

I'm considering installing it on my mini laptop as there're 2 apps I can't really find an equivalent on Linux, but as the machine is very limited, I'm a bit doubtful.

Any contribution welcome.  Wink

  Need help with USPS shipping label and Acrobat
Posted by: timbuck2 - 04-27-2023, 01:33 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (3)

I need to print a shipping label but the postal service website is requiring adobe acrobat to view, print or save the label.

How would I install the acrobat software so my browser can print the shipping label?

When updating or installing software I keep getting "dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. "
When I try running in terminal it does nothing - just seems to hang. Reboot does not solve issue.

  LL install gets stuck at the "Updates and other software" section
Posted by: RobertUSA - 04-25-2023, 02:41 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (4)

Dear fellow Linux Lite users,

I love the new Linux Lite!  Kudos to the wonderful developers!

To help those in need and to help our environment by keeping useful things (old laptops) out of the landfill, I refurbish old laptops and give them away to those in need so that they can apply online for jobs.

In a few cases involving Apple products (such as a late 2008 MacBook Air), the Linux Lite install process gets stuck at the "Updates and other software" section -- even when none of the boxes are checked.  As a result, the installation process fails -- and I need to use another Linux distro instead.

I would welcome any advice.

All the best,
Bobby

  clipboard manager recommendation needed
Posted by: Rosika - 04-21-2023, 02:05 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (5)

Hi all,  Smile

I´m using Linux Lite 6.2 and I´m very satisfied with it.  :045:

Well, I was looking for a clipboard manager but it seems LL doesn´t come with one per default.
So I ´m looking for a good one to install. Doing a bit of research I found those:

- copyq
- gpaste
- klipper
- clipman
- diodon

(https://www.tecmint.com/best-clipboard-m...for-linux/ )

Hmm, I´m not quite sure which would be best for LL. Klipper for example  seems to be optimized (exclusively?) for the KDE environment.

Does anyone of you have a good suggestion?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Many greetings
Rosika  :wave
